Story
Welcome to the world of tomato gardening. There’s nothing as sweet and good as a sun-warmed tomato fresh from the garden on a hot summer afternoon. It’s no wonder that tomatoes are the most popular vegetable in America (though botanically, tomatoes are a fruit). Cordell’s audiobook walks you through the steps in raising tomatoes – through starting tomato seeds, planting (and tricks for planting tomatoes early), and staking and caging tomatoes.

Style: Everybody has it, but nobody really knows what it is. And when it comes to garden design, everybody has style. Sometimes, though, they just haven’t figured out what their gardening style is. Some people lean more toward traditional gardens with flowers to cram them into. Others lean more toward the formal gardens and parterres.

Story
Perennials are the backbone of the garden - a low-maintenance, long-growing mainstay that the garden revolves around. I've worked with perennials for 20 years, as a manager in the perennials section at the local nursery, and then as a municipal horticulturist in charge of more than 20 gardens around the city. I've grown perennials from seed, potted them bare-rooted, divided them, deadheaded them, treated them for diseases and pests. Everything I've learned over the years I share here in this book - Perennial Classics.

Publisher's Summary
The rose is the Queen of Flowers. Roses are beautiful, fragrant, and elegant - and they require all the pampering of a real queen, don't they?
Actually, they don't! Rose gardening can be easy and pleasant. I've worked 25 years in horticulture and cared for over 300 roses in a public rose garden when I was municipal horticulturist. I found ways to keep rose gardening fuss-budgetry to a minimum while growing vigorous roses that bloomed their heads off. Rose to the Occasion: An Easy-Growing Guide to Rose Gardening shares tricks and shortcuts that rosarians use, plus simple ways you can keep up with your to-do list in the rose garden.
Gardeners of all skill levels will find this book helpful, whether they be beginning gardeners or old rosarians, whether they have a green thumb or a brown thumb.
Rose to the Occasion includes
- Down-to-earth wisdom on how to plant, grow, and prune roses
- The ins and outs of fertilizing roses to get the lushest foliage and best blooms
- Advice on choosing the right rose for your garden, as well as many easy-growing varieties
- The latest on organic pest control and fungicide use in the rose garden
- Hardy, tough old roses that can take whatever Mother Nature throws at them
- And general garden maintenance help that you can use anywhere in the garden
If you love The Rose Bible by Rayford Clayton Reddell, or books by David Austin, or books like Right Rose, Right Place; or Everyday Roses: How to Grow Knock Out® and Other Easy-Care Garden Roses; or The Organic Rose Garden, and if you like garden books leavened with humor - then this book is for you.
Rose to the Occasion is the ultimate resource for any rose gardener, or anybody in need of good gardening advice.
Roses are filled with romance, history, color, and fragrance. Grow some. It is worth it.
